I couldn't reproduce it on my OnePlus and on an emulator, but I could reproduce it on another Xiaomi device (Android 10), so it looks like some problem with Xiaomi devices.

Do you have stock Android from Xiaomi?

I was able to reproduce this on a Xiaomi device with stock Android 11 but I didn't see the "Unknown error occurred" toast.
